1. Our text discusses different ways to display quantitative data. What are some of these measures and when might it be necessary to coordinate a quantitative study?

2.  peer question Quantitative data is statistical information measured with numbers. Some examples of quantitative data is measuring your height, weight, measuring floor space, basically anything that has numbers is quantitative data. Businesses use quantitative to measure new revenues by quarter or annual, sales measures between clients and quotas and many more. Budgets are also calculated with quantitative data so companies do not go over their cap. There are many ways to display quantitative data; stem and leaf displays, histograms, bar charts, lines graphs, scatter plots and dot plots. We have a quarterly meetings every year and the quantitative data that is pulled is displayed in a line or bar chart to help up quickly understand with the visual disgram if we are meeting our quota, beating our competitors or falling behind.

3. The Bureau of Labor Statistics notes pertinent information concerning the job outlook for those wanting to pursue a career as a survey researcher. You can read more on this website: http://www.bls.gov/ooh/life-physical-and-social-science/survey-researchers.htm. What information do you find interesting? Is this a career that you would likely pursue?

4. PEER question.This website is very interesting especially if you are looking into starting a career. This website tells you the number of jobs available, the median salary or per hour rate, the level degree necessary to achieve the job, the change in the employment and the job outlook. It is very interesting and can help a lot when starting a career or looking into what you want to do. The most important is that it explains what the job dose.  It can help make your decision or change your decision. If you are just starting your career before going to college and you want to see what you need to do you get into the specific field you are looking into, this site tells you how to become one and other similar occupations to choose from.

This is not a field I would want to go into. The median salary is very low and you need an MBA to get into this field of work. The number of jobs to me seems very small which does not seem great when it is time to search for a job. I am not interested in survey research but there are other occupations that look interesting to me like advertising, promotion and marketing manager, market research, and Psychologist.
